The 26-year-old Wakako Murasaki (Takeda Rina) lives in Tokyo and works in an unassuming office job. But when she isn’t punching the clock, she loves to spend her time exploring the Tokyo food scene. She is especially fond of pairing whatever she eats with a suitable alcoholic beverage. In fact, few things in life bring her more satisfaction than matching a good meal with a tipple that fits the feast! She is occasionally joined by Aoyagi (Kamakari Kenta), a male colleague from the office. She has also become friendly with an older uncle-like figure, Taisho (Nozoe Yoshihiro), the owner of one of her favorite restaurants.

As her adventures continue, Wakako Murasaki is delighted to discover Tokyo restaurants that serve specialties from her home Prefecture of Hiroshima. She also finds an eatery that specializes in unusual canned food-based recipes. She explores Okinawan preparations, and even tries some foreign fare – such as Thai food. And when the office decides to throw a party – wouldn’t it be natural that the managers turn to her when it is time to find a suitable restaurant? What further adventures will this food-loving young woman embark upon?

This series was based on a manga series of the same name, which was authored by Chie Shinkyu.

O'live

As editor at a busy publishing house, Ra Yeo Joo (Yoo Jin Seo) is no stranger to pressure. Juggling what feels like a million different projects at once, Yeo Joo has found that one of the best ways to decompress at the end of a long day is with a stiff drink and an abundance of delicious food. But not everyone in Yeo Joo’s life approves of her preferred method of relaxation.

A member of the publishing house’s marketing team, Lee Jae Yoon’s (Lee Jae Yoon) only goal in life is to live a long, lean, healthy life. Seeing food as nothing more than necessary fuel for the body, Jae Yoon can’t understand Yeo Joo’s eating habits or how she can manage to find comfort in something as utilitarian as food. Despite their vastly different views on pretty much everything, Jae Yoon can’t deny the attraction he feels when Yeo Joo is near.&nbsp;

With a relationship that constantly fluctuates between friendly, flirty, and fiercely competitive, Yeo Joo and Jae Yoon find that their proximity to each other is starting to have some unexpected side effects. Can the relationship that seems to be blossoming between them change the way they look at work, life, and food?

Based on the manga series “Wakako Sake” by Chie Shinkyu, “Cheers to Me” is a 2015 South Korean romantic comedy drama directed by Lim Eun.

The Foodies

The Tokyo-based Wakako Murasaki (Takeda Rina) appears to be a very ordinary 26-year-old office worker from Hiroshima. She spends the daytime doing her relatively menial and uninspiring work just like everyone else. But in the evening, she transforms into an intrepid culinary adventurer! She heads out to restaurants, diners, drinking holes, street food stalls, friends’ houses – and even her own kitchen. She is particularly fond of finding a good alcoholic tipple to compliment the meal she is having!

On occasion, she is joined by Aoyagi (Kamakari Kenta), a male coworker she has become close to – and another fan of great-tasting Japanese food! She also gets to know Taisho (Nozoe Yoshihiro), the owner of one of the many restaurants that Wakako Murasaki likes to visit. Will she manage to find more friends at work? Will she manage to win them over with her love of fine food? And where will this food-curious young woman’s gourmet instincts lead her next?
